Brooks Womens B17

I objected to the word "should"
you could have said "a good way to start would be to start with the saddle level" because I can agree with that, it's a good way to START with a fit; but by saying should, you are suggesting that all of us who don't ride level are doing something incorrectly.

It's always the little things that kill me.

you're not dead yet, are you?

I've been close to dead a few times and I'm not there yet.

Profoundly embarrassed is more like it. However, there is a valuable inter-gender communication lesson for me here. "Should" is a stronger word for women than men.

No, it's just a stronger word for Mimi.

I'm going to give up now.

Actually, the best advice I got for how to start setting up a Brooks is with the NOSE level, as opposed to the entire saddle being level. That places the rear slightly higher. This works really well for keeping the nose out of my soft tissues, at least with my Brooks Finesse. But, we are all different, as Mimi rides with her nose up.
